! it be 50 arranged that the office
of state superintendent be embodied
in that of the president of
the state organization, and that a recon-

the United society as the sentiment of this

the previous suggestion be adopted that u

III VISIT.

The reception to Gov. Leslie last
evening resulted in a pleasant inter
change of opinions. Great Falls ex-
pressed her high opinion of the gov
ernor and her hearty approval of his
intention to conduct the affairs Of the
territory prudently and justly. Our
people appreciate the friendly in
terest in all parts Of the territory
which the governor evinces by this
visit, which we wish he could extend
to Fort Benton and the valleys of the
Teton and Milk rivers, that he might
sees still mor the spIendor of our
scenery and the abundant
which nature has provided for rails
ing in this region good beef, fine
wool and fast horses. On the part OF
Gov. Leslie, it was clear from his terse
but comprehensive address that he is
IN hearty sympathy with the progress
slve element in the population Of this
territory; that he is disposed to n
courage the rapid settlement of the
country, and that in order to do 50 he
will exercise his influence 10 establish
just taxation and remove every barrier
which retards the growth Of our noble
Montana. In which he will henceforth
make his home. At Washington.
where Gov. Leslie enjoys the full con
fdence Of the president and cabinet, he
will, we feel confident, do his utmost
also to remove those obstacles to the
growth Of Montana which are legacies
of the dead past, and belong to the
time when the territories were the
home only Of the fur merchant and
the hunter. The governor has done
well to come among the people and
learn the needs Of this young, sambi-
tlons commonwealth, which has all
the daring and confidence of youth.
In his own great state he has seer the
rr-.lems connected with the growth
OF communities worked out; has oD-
served louisville rise from a humble
beginning to be an opulentm metropolis. |
with abundance of whisky and tobacco
and the unalloyed wisdom of the ge-
NAL Henry W~atterson, who from his
sanctum determines the horoscope of
presidential candidates. The COVER
nor is thus able to discern our needs
and estimate u prospects. And if
among the new settlers that he di-
reefs here are ONE OF the fair daugh-
tiers of Kentucky this city of bach
elors will be duly grateful, and a COM
ing generation will rise up and call
him blessed.

The DETAILS which we have pub
lished regarding fruit trees should
meet with careful attention here and
in this neighborhood. Already a
prominent citizen has decided to or
der a large number for his farm. The
example of California is encouraging.
We read that tri-weekly fruit trains
are now being run from Sacramento
to Chicago and New York. When
the service was first inaugurated but
one train was u weekly, but the
railroad people believe that in a short
time daily trains will be put on. The
first shipment of California grapes to
the east this season was madeon Sat
urday, when a train Of eighteen cars
left Sacramento The second train
left next evening. The schedule time
to Chicago is ITO hours, the only
stops made being for fuel, water and
exchange of engines and crews. Each
car is loaded SO as to contain 22,O0O
pounds Of fruit.

pected IN trade and industry in Mon
tana and the Far West. The construc-
ton OF these works will give employ
ment to a large number of people
and diffuse wealth throughout the
entire region. Mr.. Hill and his asso-
GATES are also fully resolved to carry
out, IN connection with these extern
slve projects, the establishment of re-
duction works and the other broad
schemes of improvement which are
part Of a comprehensive design
to make this a great and prosperous
city. We look for times of great bust
ness activity here during this and
next month.
The ST. PAUL FARMER, which is an
able, progressive journal, is gathering
information regarding artesian wells
which will be instructive. The young
city of Aberdeen makes this excellent
report: "We have two artesian wells
in the city Of Aberdeen, each about
900feet deep. The pipe is four and
one-half inches in diameter in each
well, and the pressure 40 to 100 lbs.
to the square inch. The city well
supplies about seven thousand feet of
six-lnch water mains, and the supply
and pressure is sufficient to fill six
lines Of hose with inch nozzles and
will throw streams over Our highest
buildings. The water is pronounced
very wholesome by physicians and IS
used very largely for domestic pur-
poses. The water is excellent for
and all kinds Of animals drink |
in preference to any other water.
The cost of these wells complete is
three dollars per foot" Like good re-
ports come from other Dakota towns.
Their example should be followed in
Montana towns and farms, as the con-
of the ground in our terri
tory promises abundance of water.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND has signed the
interstate commerce bill. which is now the
law of the land. 1t is good deal of an ex.
pertinent, and leading men entertain differ
ent opinions as TO what will be its effect on
the business of the country. Many think il
will prove decidedly beneficial, while others
are equally sure that it will prove disastrous
Without doubt, the law will be found to pos
sess many crudities, and will need to be
amended before it can fully accomplish the
objects for which it is intended. AS We have
said before, we believe it is a step in the
right direction. A little experience in its
workings will, doubtless, enable congress to
cure any defects that may be found to exist
in the law, and 30 perfect it as to give to the
people the benefit that will flow from just
regulation of commerce between the several
states. and at the same time do no injustice
to the railroads of the country.

MISS NNsY VAN ZANpr evidently thought
she had circumvented Sheriff MArsoS and
had achieved her hearts desire. She was
married by proxy few days since, to the
man of her choice, the condemned anarchist,
AUGUST Spies. Now that the farce has been
played, the curtain should be rung down.
Unless the supreme court of Illinois shall
reverse the judgment of the lower court. or
SPIES can be hanged as he was married, by
proxy, Miss NrSNY will not be apt to partake
of many of the joys of wedlock. The sheriff
very properly announces that he shall pay
no attention to the foolish fasco, and that
Miss NINNY will not be- admitted to the
presence of her pseudo husband while he
shall remain in his custody. For young
lady who Is claimed to be more than
ordinarily bright aud intelligent, the VAN
ZANDT girl has succeeded in making a
stupendous fool of herself.

DISTRIor assembly number twenty, knights
of labor of Chicago, an institution whose
managers assume to regulate the actions of
the laboring men of that city, has ordered a
boycott on 265 local firms that handle
Armour & Cos goods. During the war of
the rebellion, men were subject to orders
and had to obey the command of their
superior officers, but the word " order" used
in relation to the common, everyday affairs
of civil life sounds extremely harsh to
American ears and we trust the day is far
distant when il will ever sound otherwise
The boycott is an institution of foreign
development and was transplanted TO Amer
lean soil along with its kindred heresies
socialism. communism and anarchism and
in connection with them, should bepromptly
and effectually squelched. 1t is even more
un-American than the strike and deserves nc

SHOULD the people ratify the proposed
submission amendment, it will become a
part of the constitution and 60 into effect on
the first day of January 4. ID. 1888. The
constitution itself provides that all amend
ments shall take effect at the commencement
of the year after their adoption. Should the
proposed amendment be adopted, there is
nothing to prevent the legislature. at its
present session. from enActing the necessary
legislation that Will be required for its en-
forcement. We understand that bill will
be introduced within the constitutional limit
of fifty days, for this express purpose. OF
course. there is nothing to prevent the enact
ment of prohibitory law, even If the amend
meTt shall be defeated at the polls, but an
adverse vote would probably be taken as an
indication that the people prefer the present
system OF taxation to the proposed one of
prohibition. Should the amendment
be ratified and TO law be passed pro-
viding adequate penalties for its violation
the present law would remain in force until
the first day of January next, when Governor
Luce would probably convene the Legislature
in extra session for the express purpose OF
providing the requisite legislation TO enforce
constitutional prohibition.
